[e-nsp] Extreme

[Jo Rhett]

We already went to Force10, but we had a few sites that are going  
away and we wanted to avoid expenses for those.  I'm pretty sure that  
us going to another vendor is part of their little "we aren't going  
to renew you" game.

FYI: anyone want a bunch of 6808 chassis and T48i or G8Xi cards?  We  
have lots, quantity discounts available.  They are probably fine as  
L2 switches...
